Will Seek Nomination for Coy eruor of Orcgou. Charles A. Johns, of Baker City, has formally announced bis candidacy for the office of governor of Oregon. Following is Mr. John's platform "The affairs of the state should be conducted with a high sense of honor and on sound business principles and a broad plane of equality, and to that end there should be a watchful care and viinlance over every department. The high and the low, 'he rich and the poo should receive the same courteous treatment. The laboring man has the same right to be heard as the railroad magnate or the millionaire. "The state school fund should be treated as sacred, and there should be no iuziflinu w itli school lands. A law should be enacted preventing specula tion in, or the sale or assignment of school land certificates. The Land Agent should not be allowed to have any favorites, or speculate through knowledge obtained by virtue of office. There should be no adjuncts to or around this office and it should always be above suspicion. 'All kinds of property, including franchises, should be required to pav a ust and reasonable tax, and express and similar companies should pay a tax on tbeir gross earnings in the state. "A law should provide for a State Bank Examiner with conservative plenary power. The primary law was enacted by a vote of a large majority of the people nd is entitled to, and should be given, fair trial and should be respected both as to its meaning and intent. "From sentiment and conviction. I tand with President Roosevelt on the labor question, and am in thorough ac- ord with him on the question of rail- oad legislation. "I am a firm believer in, and an ar- ent supporter of our public school ystem. I favor liberal support to an! high standard of education ; and with rare exceptions think our own boys and girls should be educated within the tate of Oregon. "If successful, in my administration the needs and wishes of the people will be the only "boss" and the cnlv machine." and there will be no favorites" and nobody will have a pull," and I will give the state an honest, clean, conscientious and vigil ant administration, "of the people, by the people and for the people." CHARLES A. JOHNS. (Charles A. Johns was born in Jack- on county, Missouri, June -o, lboi. oming to Oregon in 1SSS, where he has resided ever since.

Forgery In Connection Wltb State Laud Frauds. Salem, Ore., Jan. 4. A sensation was created in the circuit court yesterday hen H. H. Turner, who was jointly ndicted by the Marion county grand ury with A. T. Kelliher, on the charge f forgery in connection with the alleg ed state land frauds, took the witness tand and turned state's evidence. The iefense objected to Turner's evidence. but District Attorney McNary at once moved to dismiss the indictment against him after which the coutt ad mitted the testimony. Turner told how Mr. Kelliher ca e to him and asked bim to join in a scheme to get hold of some school land. He stated that he refused at first, but finally agreed to procure signers to ap- 1'cations for a consideration of 87. Of this amount $2 was to be letained by him for notary fees and J5 was to be paid for the signatures. Finding it hard to secure signatures, it was flnallv decided that Turner shou'd sign fictic ious names to the applications which he did. He identified a number of signa tures on applications tor the purchase of school land introduced in evidence as having been forged by himself and tes tified that he signed the name "G. D. Rice" to the application upon which the indictment against himself and Mr. Kelliher was based. The witness further stated th .t Mr. Kelliher fearing that Tnrnei's notarial seal on so many applications might create suspicion, suggested that he en list the services of some other notary. Chailes Lenon was then asked to sup ply the notarial seal and Turner sta'ed that he signed all of the applications beating Mr. Lenon's signature as no tary. The defense introdued a number of witnesses in an effort to impeach the testimony of Mr. Turner. After three hours of deliberation the jurv this afternoon returned a verdict of guilty against A. T. kelliher charged w ith forgery in procuring the fraudti- lent sk-nimz of cerlificates to state lands. Alfalfa nral. A vlant for grinding alfalfa into meal has just betn installed and placed in operation at Namra. Ida! o. Tre pro cess of tnanufactui ing the meal is iuite a complicated oue. The alfilfa ha first to be kiln dried and then put through different machines in cutting and reducing it to a meal stage. The alfalfa thus treated is claimed to be much hitler for stock tt an when fed in its natural form, as the a'alk which is usually net eaten up contains the great- est amount of protein. By manufacturing the hay into meal, stock obtains all this valuable sub stance. The meal after being prepared is placed in ICO pound sacks for ship ment. The machinery installed in the Nam pa plant, which is the first of its kind to be established west of Omaha, is all modern ana up-to-date, and baa been very expensive. Omaha has two factories. Ore of them costs about $00, 000 and the other 130,000, and tbey are both finding a ready market 'or ell the meal thev can manufacture. The diffi culty there is getting the hay to supply the factory, but in this alfalfa region there should be no difficulty in ttiat respect. That alfalfa meal will become an im portant article of comme-ce there can be li tie d uht. In this concentrated form it will b especially valuable for t-bippi g into Realities where alfalfa is not much grown. But tor general feed ing of stock where alfalfa ii produced in abundance we hardly expect to see the meal come into general use. It is most to expensive a proposition to compete with chopped hay, which to a certain extent, anewers the same pur pose and is not an expensive process. We predial that it will not be many years till the bu'k of the alfalfa fed to stock, especially sheep and cattle, will he chopped. This and the grioding of the hay will so've the problem of get ting rid of the evil fffeet of the pesky foxtail or wild barley, which is gettinir so common all through the alfalfa grow ing districts, and which it seems al most impossible to get rid of.
